Goodbye Schatz


My ex-mother in law died last Friday, a truly wonderful lady, it was a very emotional weekend. I flew out to New York Saturday, the services were Sunday then I flew home Monday.

It was hard for me to go, and I almost didn't go using work as an excuse, because of the obvious "ex" factor, but I woke up with a start Saturday morning realizing that I wanted to be there, I am so very glad that I went.

My father in law died not too long ago and he would often refer to her as Schatz, translated darling or sweetheart. It is sad to see this generation leave us for so many reasons, I will keep both of their memories alive in my heart.
